Meet an Olympian & See the Flaming Lips: Jackson Hole's Rendezvous Fest Guide
Jackson Hole‘s annual end-of-season party returns this weekend with a few updates and a few very special guests. Rendezvous Music Festival kicks off at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort on Friday, March 27, 2026, in celebration of the ski area’s 60th anniversary weekend.
If you’ve attended Rendezvous Fest in years past, you’ll know what a good time it is, and this year promises to be just as epic. However, the format has changed a bit from years past, and the mountain has a couple of extra surprises in store. Here’s everything you need to know about Rendezvous Fest 2026.
The weekend kicks off with a free concert by Souls of Mischief (’93 Til Infinity, anyone?) under the Tram to cap off the Road to Rendezvous music series. Souls of Mischief captivated Jackson Hole performing at the top of Snow King Mountain in 2024, and they’ve returned to help close out the winter season.
Rendezvous Fest officially kicks off on Saturday, March 28, and will feature not only the music festival but also celebrations of the Jackson Hole-bred Olympians who represented Team USA in Milan-Cortina this winter.
Unlike years past, Rendezvous Fest will only feature one night of music in Teton Village, and guests will be required to purchase tickets for entry.

At 9:00 a.m., the public is invited to watch an unveiling of a golden gondola car at the base of Bridger Gondola in honor of alpine racer and 2026 Olympic gold medalist, Breezy Johnson. A ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place, and guests will receive commemorative gold medals.
Following the unveiling of the golden gondola, the public will have the chance to meet some of Jackson Hole’s Olympians. From 9:30 a.m.-10:30 a.m., a poster signing will take place at Rendezvous Lodge at the top of Bridger Gondola with Johnson and fellow Jackson Hole athlete and 2026 Olympian, Anna Gibson, who represented Team USA in the inaugural Olympic SkiMo races.
Gibson and her teammate, Cam Smith, finished in 4th place in the mixed relay.
The music portion of the festival starts at the base of Jackson Hole in the Village Lot at 4 p.m. on Saturday afternoon. DJ & Producer Blake Horstman will kick off the evening. Following Hortsman is the undefinable jam band Umphrey’s McGee, known for their high-energy, genre-bending songs and epic light shows. Lastly, GRAMMY-winning artist, The Flaming Lips, will close out the night with their one-of-a-kind energy.
Rumor has it, Jackson Hole has a couple of extra surprises up its sleeves for the festival, along with a killer music lineup that you won’t want to miss.
Here’s a specially curated playlist of the artists playing the festival to get you stoked:
